You guys know who Peter Lik is? He's an awesome photographer and I could only dream that I could be 1/2 as good as him. Anyways, he has this beauuuutiful picture of Scripps Pier that I wanted to try and recreate.

Obviously I shoulda just stayed in bed cause mines wasn't even close. We woke up before the crack of dawn (4:30!!) and drove to Scripps Pier. It was suuuper windy and sand was blasting us in the face! It hurt! Unfortunately the wind kept moving my tripod during my long exposures so most of the pics had motion on um. grrrr...these were two of the few that actually came out.

Yah. not even close. So we went back to the selfies...most of these didn't turn out either cause our hair was flying in our face!

I guess I gotta go back to San Diego when I have more time...we had to rush to the airport after the beach. That's the end of my whirlwind weekend!

My second cousin got married this weekend in Palm Springs. We found out that no one from Hawaii was gonna make it to the wedding so me and my three sisters came to the rescue! (Mom and dad are in China so they couldn't make it). Karie and I flew in Friday night, got in at midnight, met Pam and Sandy and drove out the next morning. Wow. This was the first time we hung out in A LONG time. First road trip, that's for sure!

We ran into traffic and barely made it to the wedding. Unfortunately the bride and groom asked that no pictures be taken during the ceremony (which is a good thing, we were rushing so much to get there I forgot my camera at the hotel!) so I only got pics a the reception. Thank god the hotel was only 5 minutes away!

It's
Christmas card time again! Jalna's back hasn't been cooperating with
her so she asked me to fill in while she's recovering. This was the
first time i've met these families and they were so much fun and the
kids were ADORABLE!!
